Australia Lets You Choose Your Feed | Global News

Australia is cracking down on social media giants with bold new laws designed to put users back in control—especially kids. Starting in December, teens under 16 were banned from platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, and now Australia’s pushing further: users can opt out of algorithm-driven feeds and choose chronological ones showing only content from people they follow. Platforms will be fined up to $100 million if they don’t comply. The overhaul also targets online games, apps, and AI chatbots to block addictive features and protect mental health. This is about transparency, autonomy, and holding tech accountable—Australia’s making waves in reshaping the digital world for good.
